Simplify 2(3v+9)−14−6(−5v−4) .(1 point)

Answer 1

To simplify the expression, we need to distribute and combine like terms.

2(3v + 9) - 14 - 6(-5v - 4)

First, distribute 2 to (3v + 9) using the distributive property:
6v + 18 - 14 - 6(-5v - 4)

Next, distribute -6 to (-5v - 4):
6v + 18 - 14 + 30v + 24

Now, combine like terms:
(6v + 30v) + (18 + 24) - 14
36v + 42 - 14

Finally, combine remaining like terms:
36v + 28
